Girls story.

The quaint, gray, picturesque old grange
Has seen three hundred years Of change
With all their varying seasons pass,
And hours like sands that throught the glass
of time keep dropping, one by one;
We live, and loi our lives are gone,
And death and change, and hope and fears,
Fill up the measure of the years.
Here, in the pleasant gallery,
With carved oak panneled round, L see
A girls brown eyes and shining hair
Coiled ON the shapely head, and fair,
Sad, musing face, whose charms engage
The heart like some enchanting page,
Where grief and love and tears prevail,
In sweet Clarissa's moving talei
A wistful, lovely face, and n
1t moves the heart to look upon;
Poor child whose eyes, through tears OF
woe,
Looked down a century ago,
And saw, one morning bright with May,
Her brave young lover ride away
When by the easement on the stair
Tho light of life grew dark for herl
His letter told her, chime till death /"
He fell in fight, the legend saith,
Covered with glory, and his ears
Were thrilled in death with conquering
cheers;
And she strove ever to endure
Her grief. and helped the suffering poor,
And lived unwedded till she died,
And now in heaven is satisfied.

Look upon every mar as a suicide

and steady growth to a community or
city IS an assured fact. Rome Courier
1t takes people to make town, and as
people have physical necessities that must
be met daily it requires money to procure
these physical necessities, and to obtain
money, they must have daily employment
at some kind OF business. TO create busi,

labor. So the last analysis OF the whole
subject is that manufacturing enterprises.

roads foundries, iron works, and things OF
this kind must be ia existence to supply
lucrative employment TO the people who
live in the town. Otherwise the people who
cannot find employment will not move TO
that town, and enforced idleness will cause
others already there to move away in order
to secure work to make money to buy the
physical necessities OF life Thea the great
need of Marietta is industrial and manuiac-
